Re: Media Tree not updating

A Portable Install won't integrate with Windows Can you elaborate on that? (it might be wise to install as Portable on a local drive and if needed use a DB on the NAS) If I do that, would I follow the same procedure of moving the DB and INI file (including editing path) as with regular version in o...

Re: Media Tree not updating

No need to move ini to start with a new DB I realise that. I was trying to recall at what point to move and edit it in order to have it on my NAS with the DB, though I think I've found the wiki link I was originally given. Of course there's also the editing of the Target field in the shortcut: &quo...

Re: Media Tree not updating

Terrific! I've moved the DB before but needed a refresher! The same goes for the new INI file: how and at what point should I move it, as I have both on my NAS? Also, if I can open MM twice to view two DB then how is this done? Surely opening the second installation would open the same DB as the fir...

Re: Media Tree not updating

Thanks for the link. Informative. MediaMonkey will automatically create the new DB if the old on can't be found (moved/deleted) Will it create it in the MM.db default directory or allow me to choose? Or do I have to move it and the INI file like before? And do I need to delete the original INI file ...

Re: Media Tree not updating

A new database won't have your Playlists, Play History and unsaved tags (most tags are saved by default for most formats). Since beginning this thread and last posting I've done little with my database, but have finally accepted (as you said!) that I'll need to create a new one. But can you clarify...

Re: Media Tree not updating

Thought I'd found solution, though it may shed some light. After initially ensuring that Options > Library > File Monitor, Continuous option was unticked for safety of test, I deleted one of Bon Jovi albums (Bounce) from library, closed MM, opened again and after automatic start-up scan it was liste...

What if it isn't corruption? And could my previous post be of relevance?

Re: Media Tree not updating

Interesting, though I don't think I have anything that complicated set up (though keen to know how). As far as I can recall most settings under Options > Media Tree are default and I only use MM for audio. I just thought of a possible (though not definite) occurrence with one or both of the Bon Jovi...

Any suggestions on how to resolve? Would removing and attempting albums in question again be likely to help? If not, how can it be rectified.

Re: Media Tree not updating

No, not accessing via media server. However, DLNA issue in question was a result of importing via clicking on media server path rather than direct path to NAS. Other symptoms regarding Media Tree still to be resolved. Nothing to do with setup as I used another MM.db in another account today with alm...

Re: Media Tree not updating

Does collapse/expand of the node resolve the problem? No, tried that many times, as well as clicking on different artist, node etc. Thought may have been to do with options for scanning library as since last year only had continuous selected. Ticked option for when opening database as well, though ...

Re: Media Tree not updating

Have you run File > Maintain Library with complete optimization recently? Every time. Makes no difference. Also where (exactly) in the Media Tree are you looking? Typically in Artists & Album Artists, but as I mentioned, I've noticed metadata relating to these albums missing elsewhere, such as ...

Media Tree not updating

Noticed last year that Media Tree didn't update when I added 2 downloaded Bon Jovi albums to library, though existing Bon Jovi albums were listed and new ones displayed on main screen. Recently imported Eddy Grant album which produced same results, though as this is only listing for him, he isn't li...

Re: MMA still not NAS compatible

This is definitely the direction that I want to see MMA go--my feeling is that a tablet should eventually have almost the entire feature set of MMW. Same here! As well as mobile/cell. That said, I've added this feature at: http://www.ventismedia.com/mantis/view.php?id=12402 Thanks for that. I've vi...

Re: MMA still not NAS compatible

access to MMW DB seems really unlikely as it's likely setup differently from DB used in MMA. MMW provides the necessary info to MMA There's a contradiction here. However, regardless of how MMW & MMA sync (typically), you've confirmed that, as I said, only UPnP is possible from a NAS with the cu...
